True enough. But the concept we have is to a more formal organization to it. As I said, the wizards of Middle Earth are a good example.

You have Gandalf-the Gray, Saruman-the White, etc. etc. (I know the books also mentioned a "Red" mage and maybe a "Brown", but it's been a veeery long time since I read them.

That's what I'm thinking of doing here. Have 1 Ranger Lord that watches over an entire country, then have the rest of the rangers assigned to specific areas. In times of crises, it will be up to the Ranger Lord to coordinate the efforts of the rest. Something along that line anyway.

This was an idea I had when I played PnP and one of the Mods on the HADB forum also wanted to explore the idea. Other classes have guilds or unions or whatever. I know that rangers are, by definition, loners who prefer to work alone, or with only a few close allies.

It's an idea we are kicking around. Right now, I'm thinking of simply calling it the Ring, and giving each member an individual ring to wear to acknowledge their status as a ranger.

Any comments (pro or con) are welcome.
